The Sway Windows 10 app should make it easier for users of the new OS to build and manage their projects, though Microsoft reps were clear that Sway isn't moving away from its focus on the web. In many ways, it's also like a modern Content Management Service like those offered by Squarespace and Medium, allowing you to just plug in content and get a beautiful final product. Much like Edge, the company's new Windows 10 browser, it's as if Microsoft went back to the drawing board and came up with a new type of presentation app for our multi-device age. In a nutshell, Sway lets you create stylized presentations that are easily viewable across phones, tablets and computers. That's a surprising amount of progress for an app that initially seemed like a less capable PowerPoint for the web. On top of that, Sway is also one of the services Microsoft has integrated into Docs, its new online document sharing service. Today, Microsoft announced that it's bringing the app out of preview mode (the company's designation for a beta test), and it's launching a dedicated Sway app for Windows 10.
